WE WILL NOT BE OWNED

.by Samuel Johnson

"No government power can be abused long. Mankind will not bear it. There is a remedy in human nature against tyranny that will keep us safe under every form of government."

WE WILL NOT BE OWNED

Like the birds we were born to spread our wings

Experience freedom among other things

Our voices were made to sing loud and clear

It is in our nature to overcome our fear

Some have black hearts and manipulate

Engineer our lives and seal our fate

Obsessed with power to run the show

Able to take us where we refused to go

Most of us have souls with liberty's spirit

We reject oppression as well as fear it

Wars on prosperity oppressors declare

True Americans won't let them take us there

Although there are some who will fall in line

Amid the handouts they've become the blind

No, we won't let them clip our wings

America is the land where freedom rings

We've stood our ground many times before

Hand to hand and shore to shore

We will defend our liberty one more time

And leave another tyrant behind
